What goes on behind closed doors, private wounds, open sores
You're your own worst enemy and cheap thrills bring you to your knees
It's thumbs down for someone you know, and it's easy come and easy go
Chorus:
Burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat 'cause you paid your debt
Livin' well is the best revenge, so give 'em hell
While the city sleeps - it's all there in black and white
While the city sleeps - through the eye of the needle, gotta thread your life
While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps
It's a hit or miss, an eye for an eye, live for today, and don't ask why
For better or worse, you bought and sold
They love you while you're hot and leave you when you're cold
chorus
While the city sleeps - yeah, better run for your life
Take your troubles to the night
While the city sleeps - yeah, beggars, thieves and losers, there's no relief
While the city sleeps - there's no relief, while the city sleeps
While the city sleeps - yeah
I was there through the ages
Chained slaves to their cages
I have seen you eat your own
I'm the cycle of pain
Of a thousand year old reign
I'm suicide and salvation
The omen to nations
That you worship on all fours
I'm the infection and famine
That's knocking at your door
That's why you're feeling so
Unholy
Oh, I was created by man, you know I'm....
Unholy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I am the incubus
i lay the egg in you
The worm that burrows
Through your brain
But you are the beast
That calls me by my name
You send your children to war
To serve bastards and whores
So now you know
You created me
On the day that you were born
Unholy
I was created by man, yeah I'm the Lord of the flies, you know I'm
From the left hand of power comes the father of lies
- Unholy!
Lookin' for a thrill, you'll get it my way
Let's hit the highway, I'll take you down
Shoot out in the night, lookin' for action
The main attraction is back in town
Press the pedal to the metal, on your mark, set, go
Chorus:
Under the gun - do your living on the trigger
Under the gun - walk on the wire
Under the gun - when the stakes are gettin' bigger
Under the gun - take aim and fire
I don't need a reason to get crazy, I'm gettin' crazy and that's enough
Show me somethin' strange, I'll make it stranger
I swear that danger runs in my blood
Press the pedal to the metal, on your mark, set, go
When the dust begins to settle, everybody's gonna know
chorus - (fire, fire) fire (fire)
Well there's no speed limit where I'm comin' from
Let's hit the highway doin' 69!!
Press the pedal to the metal, on your mark, set, go
When the dust begins to settle, everybody's gonna know
once I was a fool dreamin' my life away, and then yesterday I found you
Lookin' for me, draggin' your heart around at the lost and found
I love you, you're the only one who could make me feel love was smart
I feel you deep inside of me, beatin' up against my heart
And I found out, I found out, what makes the world go 'round
Oh I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round
You came up to me, turnin' my head around, I was hangin' on
Until you looked up at me, thrashin' your bedroom eyes, I was paralyzed
I love you, you're the only one who could make me feel love was smart
I feel you deep inside of me, beatin' up against my heart
Chorus:
And I found out, oh I found out, what makes the world go 'round
I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round and 'round
And I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round
I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round
Whenever I touch you, you know that I want you
I love you forever, whenever you're ready
Wanna bite the hand that feeds me, wanna turn the tides
Set the demons free and watch 'em fly
Strike down the one who leads me, I'm gonna take his place
Gonna vindicate the human race
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Take the reins of power and seize them, draw the battle lines
Armageddon's just a matter of time
Tear down the voice of reason, let the arrows fly
Your freedom's just a state of mind, yeah
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Everyone's thinkin' they're so hot tonite, but there's a fire in your eyes
Everybody wants you girl, but I want you more than any other guy
You got what I want, I got what you need, fire below
So if you know it, show it, don't let me go, whooah
Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer
Turn on the night - yeah, I wanna feel this feeling get stronger
Take me in your arms, I'll take you into my heart
Let's bring this love to life
C'mon baby put your finger on the switch, let's make some sparks ignite
Show me what you want, show me what you need, fire below
C'mon and take me, shake me, don't let me go, whooah
Chorus:
Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer
Turn on the night - yeah, I wanna feel this feeling get stronger
Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer
Turn on the night - yeah, you know this feeling keeps getting stronger
Hey babe - you got what I want, I got what you need, fire below
Though you may be pure of heart
And free of sin
And though you have been chosen
To begin
And yet you must be worthy of
The prophecy
But seek and you shall find
Your destiny
Loneliness will haunt you
Will you sacrifice?
Do you take the oath
Will you live your life
Under the rose
The more you hurt the less you feel
The pain
And the more you change, the more you stay
The same
But now before you lies the quest
At hand
